Subject: [PATCH 3/3] blkio-throttle: Fix possible multiplication overflow in iops calculations
Date: Fri,  1 Oct 2010 12:20:29 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1285950029-30205-4-git-send-email-vgoyal@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1285950029-30205-1-git-send-email-vgoyal@redhat.com>

o User can specify max iops value of 32bit (UINT_MAX), through cgroup
  interface. If a user has specified say 4294967294 (UNIT_MAX  - 2), then
  on 32bit platform, following multiplication can overflow.

  io_allowed = (tg->iops[rw] * jiffy_elapsed_rnd)

o Explicitly cast the multiplication to 64bit and then perform division and
  then check whether result is still great then UNINT_MAX.
